  1. Just tried Bomber Crew by RunnerDuck & CurveGames—Clash of Clans meets Oregon Trail at 30,000 ft. Crew chaos, resource juggling, and tactical survival. No PvP, just pure strategy. Totally slept-on gem.

    I had to do some digging around for this one, because when I looked it up in my activations list on Steam, it appeared that I'd bought the retail version, and I couldn't understand why I would have done that.

    Bomber Crew, is a cartoonish strategy sim in which you manage the crew of a World War 2 Lancaster bomber, including shooting down enemy planes, aerial reconnaissance, and in an unexpected twist, dropping bombs.

    I played the first two tutorial missions, and found the controls incredibly frustrating. I only played the second tutorial mission because it increased the crew size, and I needed to cross the 15 minute mark, and I was just... bored.

    I just didn't connect with the game at all. I can see how the difficulty could ramp up, but I feel like my frustration would ramp up as well, with the "zoom into the plane to manage the crew" mechanic.

    I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt, and try it again when I'm not quite as please-don't-let-these-symptoms-be-COVID.
